Trigeneration / CCHP

What is trigeneration / CCHP?

Combine your cooling, heat, and power by bringing together a cogeneration plant and absorption chillers in one high-efficiency, low-emission system.

 Cogeneration—or combined heat and power (CHP)—systems offer efficient power and heat with low emissions, while absorption chillers provide an economical and environmental alternative to conventional refrigeration using compression chillers. Combining these elements as a trigeneration plant enables excellent total fuel efficiency, elimination of HCFC/CFC refrigerants, and reduced overall air emissions.

A powerful engine portfolio

INNIO offers you a comprehensive portfolio from 250 kW up to 10 MW of single unit electrical power output. By using multiple CHP and trigeneration systems in one plant, the power output can be scaled up while part load performance and reliability are significantly increased.

Benefits of CCHP solutions

• Boost cooling efficiency and cut costs with absorption-based systems for air conditioning, which are much more efficient and economical in producing low NOx emissions compared to conventional refrigeration technology
• Meet your heating requirements by harnessing relatively inexpensive “excess energy” as part of the trigeneration system
• Use produced electricity to cover your plant’s power requirements or feed it into the public grid
• Reduce your maintenance expenses and increase intervals between overhauls with simple, high-quality construction, with no moving parts
• Enjoy noiseless operation
• Receive the flexibility of dual fuel capability
• Reduce your operating and life-cycle costs
• Eliminate use of ozone-damaging substances by using water as a refrigerant
